Answer:

The correct answer will be- Endospore.

Explanation:

Bacteria under unfavourable conditions form a tough protective shell called "endospores" to ensure the survival of bacteria during environmental stress conditions.

The endospores are the tough, dormant, and non-reproductive structure produced by the bacteria belonging to the family Firmicute. The endospores provide resistance to desiccation,  temperature, chemical disinfectants, starvation, lysozyme and ultraviolet and gamma radiation.

Thus, Endospore is the correct answer.
